Couldn't this guy just be the stem-cell version of the guy who had reportedly entirely fought off HIV within his own body? I'll have to see if I can find that story.

Blah blah, needs more tests, blah blah. Also, how do you guarantee a supply of blood from people with that gene mutation? Where's DS and his philosophical question thread: would you require people with the mutation to donate stem cells to save the lives of others?

ETFix a mistake
